got defected last night again on port road... cop was a cock as uisually... he said that next time i get defected i wont be able to renew my registration (yea right)... and that I'll lose my license (wtf)... and yea, apparently i have aftermarket brake cylinder lol :thumbsup:  ... i just stayed quiet all the time and said 'have a good night officer' at the end lol

oh and yea, i tested positive for meth twice lol... then 3rd time it tested negative

i got done for tyres. all 4 had worn the inside edge out unknowingly!?!?! plus they were borrowed tyres while mine get re-rolled. the cops were at strath this morning(big set up like 5-10 bikes, had a r33 pulled over on the opposite side and were pulling everyone over inc bikes). they were good, open and honest. not attitude at all. told me things to make sure i check before i in for my inspection.

4 years and first actual run in with them.

was talking to a friend of mine friday night who is currently training to become a police officer. he told me he went out on his first placement last week and apparently they were pulling over all imported nissan's, toyota's etc. basicly he said if it was an import it was a target. i think this is totally unfair

I find that funny too Craig... bit of irony there, by hunting down and targeting imports they are putting people behind the wheel of cars they don't give two shits about and are at times far from road legal in terms of tread, brakes, body condition, etc

thus is to true. my falcon is ok but the ke yea.

brakes are ave but working. runns like shit atm. matte black rattle can paint. rust etc etc. but they wanna look at my skyline. stops on a dime due to upgraded brakes, good tread, not to loud, great suspension etc etc. but it has a snail on it so it must have a BOV so cops love to look at it.

was sitting at a set of lights at 645am on sat mon in the skyline and a cop stopped and stared at me instead of turning in the opposite direction i was goin. i took off when the lights went green and then he took off. 5 sec later he turned off his lights, dropped a u bolt at first possibele instance and went to follow me with lights off. i knew he was there as i watched it all happen. WTF is with that??? i didnt do anything wrong and my car doesnt look like a drift pig. it was actually just washed as i was on the way to display it the old skool new age car show. bout time they got their prioritys right.

yeah, my dailys f**ked. tyres are always worn second handies, brakes are a meh, suspension is looser than a $2 you-know-what, got more oil leaks than the exxon valdez, and drops coolant like its going out of style, it even looks like a death trap, but itll get waved through every defect/rbt. without fail. ive been given a formal warning for it once, and that was when the front tyres were down to canvas.

I got a 1981 Toyota Corona picked it off a mate for $250. It moves so thats the main thing.

- steering wheel vibrates ALOT

- tyres arent bold but they're shit

- brakes squeals but who cares it still brakes

- headlights probably lights up about 10 metres max of road infront

- engine has more oil on the engine block than inside the engine I reckon

- coolant is a mixture of green and brown... brown is the rust.

- engine is a gutless piece of crap and tends to hold traffic up - I tend to drive behind trucks because they're capable of getting up to speed faster at the lights

- struggles to do 60km/h up any slope let alone reaching the signed speed limit of 80km/h

- feels like a deathtrap at 80km/h on bumpy roads... now imagine said road while raining and shitty windscreen wipers.

- engine smells pretty bad - I dont even wind the driver's side window down anymore seems to come from that side - winding down the passenger side is fine.

- dont think it has a cat either being a 1980s car

think thats all...

This one time went through an RBT and the officer said I could turn off my engine while he does the drug test... I told him it'll probably wont turn back on if I turn it off haha so he lol'd and said leave it he doesnt want to be pushing me out.

    • You've just discovered a really good reason to tell yourself, yes, I do need to buy an aftermarket ECU. Put the MAF in the bin. Slap in the new ECU and have a think about what turbo sounds you prefer.  Do you want a 90's style BOV wooosh? Do you want a hektik tsututututu?  Mate, can't go wrong. Just gotta get that ECU and the world is your oyster. 
    • Hi. Iam just curisou about this topic. I saw this video. It is about Greddy Type FV2. I know that BoVs are about that sound but how and when to use it? I read some topic here and from what i have understand on stock RB with MAF there will be some "problems" if you use this BoV? It vents the air in to the atmosphere and the MAF on stock car needs this air back in to the intake and not out? Or is it wrong? If so...i saw you can put some adaptor to circule air back...but does that not "loose" that sound? I saw another BoV from Turbosmart and it has two "exhaust" like ports? One is for the stock tubing for letting air back and one is for "sound" and let the air in the atmosphere? Can someone please explain? This is the Greddy one:  And this is the Turbosmart.     THANK YOU!! EDIT: So i read about this topic some more and i if i understand that correctly: That Greddy can function either like BoV or 100% Bypass valve? And that Turbosmart is what they called hybrid so you can adjust what and how many air can be vented out or back in? Is this right? THX!
    • That dirty voltage drop is the culprit I suspect 
    • i cant get them all in 1 screenshot unfortunately as i just dont know how to move things around tbh, but they are all from the same log and the line crosses at the same point for all of them
    • It's about time I start work on my sun tan. So I knocked up a few parts that will all combine together to become my new power steering reservoir. Now just to produce an abundance of UV and IR rays while melting a heap of bits of alu to become one... Well, that's after I put one more hole in it for the return line to plumb to. It likely won't be this weekend, as Sunday I'm meant to be in doing some last minute stuff to the AMG race car, and the weekend after will be filled with non my Skyline stuff, followed by Bathurst 6 hour. So I don't expect to get to melt metal for at least 3 weeks.   I also managed to stuff up and start cutting the hole for the res to pump pipe on the wrong side of the line... It means instead of the lines being nice and tight against the inner guard, they'll be out off the guard.    The size of it means I should end up with about 1.8L of power steering fluid, and still have space for another half a litre before it reaches the overflow/breather. This is wayyyyyyy more capacity than factory, which should help keep Powersteer oil temps lower, and the design hopefully allows it to prevent any aerated oil being able to makes its way down to the bottom as it'll have a couple of baffles and some hopeful trickery to force air bubbles away from the bottom.
